Another Historical Photo

Posted on March 1, 2020August 3, 2020 by Administrator

Keeping with the thought that ALL photos of St. Anne’s that come across my desk, either via text, email, or through web searching should be preserved and presented for your enjoyment…here’s a shot, taken from the balcony, of the 1978 Mass marking the Dominican presence at the parish in 1978 (exact date unknown at this time).

Of course, the sanctuary was as it was reconfigured (except for Fr. Folster’s removal of the communion rail and the repurposing of the gates to the sanctuary as a trim for the ambo), this is pretty much as the altar was after the post Vatican-II implied requirement to put in a table altar for Mass celebrated facing the congregation, and pre-construction of the carpeted platform as it currently is in the upper church.
